Y
FORMER PRIME MINISTER
RECEIVES HONORARY DEGREE
The Right Honourable JOHN G. DIEFENBAKER,
Member of Parliament for Prince Albert and
former Prime Minister of Canada, received an
Honorary Doctor of Laws degree at the
University’s Fall Convocation held Saturday,
November 16.
Mr. Diefenbaker, 79, has one of the longest
political careers in Canadian history. He was
first elected to the House of Commons in 1940
and has not missed a session since. In 1956 he
was elected federal Conservative leader by his
party; the next year he led it to a majority in
the lower House. His government was
re-elected in 1958 with the largest majority in
Canadian history, and it was returned again in
1962. After the Liberals won a majority in
April 1963 Mr. Diefenbaker became Leader of
the Opposition, a position he held until he
resigned the Conservative leadership in
September 1967.
Mr. Diefenbaker holds more than 30
honorary degrees from universities and colleges
in Canada, the United States, India, and Israel.
They include the universities of Toronto,
, Western Ontario, Acadia, British Columbia,
Saskatchewan, Montreal, New Brunswick,
McGill, and McMaster in Canada; Oklahoma,
Michigan State and Princeton in the United
* States; and Punjab and Delhi in India.
Mr. Diefenbaker is a member of the Bars of
Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, and
, Upper Canada. He was created King’s Counsel
(Saskatchewan) in 1929, and Queen’s Counsel
(Ontario) in 1958. He is also an Honorary
Bencher of Gray’s Inn, London, England, an
’ Honorary Life Member of the Canadian Bar
Association, and holds Honorary Membership
in the Illustre Nacional Colegio de Abogados,
_ conferred on him by the Bar of Mexico in
1961. Mr. Diefenbaker is Chancellor of the
University of Saskatchewan.
Of the 1,477 people who convocated
November 16, more than 500 participated in
the ceremony. 250 Master’s or Doctor’s degrees
were conferred.
In addition to Mr. Diefenbaker’s honorary
degree, another special presentation was made.
LOUIS A. DESROCHERS, former Chancellor of the
University, received the Alumni Golden Jubilee
’ Award. The award is presented to citizens,
not necessarily alumni, who have contributed
significantly to the welfare of the University.

CAMPUS MAIL DELIVERY
In 1972, following a report from the Office of
Administrative Systems, the Administrative
Review Committee of the Board of Governors
recommended that the Department of Special
Services be dissolved and that its various
functions be relocated. That dissolution is
now in progress, and mail metering and
distribution have become the responsibility of
a new division of the Purchasing Department,
Receiving and Distributing.
The new division, which also includes
Shipping and Receiving and Central Stores,
will be managed by LYALL FOULSTON, former
manager of Central Stores. As Distribution
Manager, Mr. Foulston will control three
primary sections: scheduled deliveries (mail
and light parcels), shipping and receiving, and
RICHARD KERR
central stores. The reorganization brings a
change in basic mail service. In January the
mail room and all Special Services personnel
will be moved from Athabasca Hall to the
General Services Building. Please note,
however, that the Post Office will remain in
Athabasca Hall for the time being. Mail service
will be integrated with light parcel delivery,
and service to most departments will be
increased to four pick-ups per day. A very strict
schedule will prevail, such that any properly
addressed campus mail will be delivered to
the recipient within three hours of pick-up
time; but the co-operation of all users is
required.
“Properly addressed,” for example, takes on
a new meaning. ROY BENNETT, Director of
Purchasing, says that the new service will
work efficiently only if the recipient’s name,
address and building are placed on the
envelope—the building is the new component.
Mr. Bennett also notes that mail arriving from
off campus will be speeded up if addresses
contain the building name as well. Out-going
mail should be sorted into the following
divisions: (1) local (Edmonton); (2) out of
town; (3) air mail; (4) registered; and (5)
campus. Stamped mail should also be separated
from mail which requires metering.
The increased frequency and efficiency of
campus mail service should considerably
reduce the need for courier and messenger
service. After April 1975 courier and messenger
service will be available only as a charged
service; it will not be free.
Mail sorting and handling operations are
being reorganized as well. Twelve routes have
been established, and carriers for each route
will participate in a primary sort each

morning, working with sorting and handling
staff. Then there is a secondary sort,
comprising one box for each address on a
given route. The Canada Post Office is
co-operating in an important way; it will
deliver mail to the campus in special plastic
trays—supplied by the University—thereby
eliminating the cumbersome, unwieldy mail
sacks used normally.
The new system is adapted from one
successfully used by the University of
Waterloo. ABE BERGEN, a university
management consultant, has assisted in the
development of the system here, working with
people from the University of Waterloo and
The University of Alberta. In addition, the
Canada Post Office made many helpful
suggestions, and lent its time and services
willingly.
An information sheet containing all
necessary information on the new system will
be available from campus mail carriers in the
near future. Further information regarding
the reorganization of Special Services and
Shipping and Receiving can be obtained from
Mr. Foulston or Mr. Bennett at 432-3275.
GRANT FUNDS AVAILABLE
Do you or a group to which you belong have a
special project which needs financial assistance
to get started or to continue? If so, LORNE
MAC PHERSON, Fund Development Officer,
advises that the Alma Mater Fund might be
just what you are looking for.
The Alma Mater Fund was established this
year through the consolidation of a number of
campaigns to which University graduates have
contributed in the past. Its purpose is to use
alumni donations for projects which give an
added dimension to University activities.
Though there are no strict rules stating
which sorts of projects will be funded, the
Allocations Committee stresses student-oriented
activities. Research, salaries, and/or programs
which might be financed from University
operating budgets are given less priority,
because funds are limited.
PETER WATTS, former co-ordinator of University Information Systems,
Queens University, has been appointed Director of the Office of
Administrative Systems. Born in Leicester, England, he obtained an
Honours BA from Nottingham University. He has a broad range of
experience in the design, development, implementation, and operation
of systems serving the administrative sectors of universities. He also
has worked with space allocation, with the objective of achieving
maximum utilization of university space. His appointment became
effective September 1, 1974.
The first group of grants, awarded early in
1974, ranged in size from $27 to $2,000.
Recipients included the Mixed Chorus, the
Boreal Institute for Northern Studies, the
Department of Drama (Playwright-in-
Residence), the Graduate Students’ Association,
University Athletic Board, the University
Library, and The Spoken Word lecture series,
which brings such individuals as RALPH NADER
to the campus. Please submit applications
as soon as possible to: Lorne MacPherson,
Secretary, Alma Mater Fund Allocations
Committee, Fund Development Office, 849
General Services Building.

The Ford Foundation International
Competition for Research on the Soviet
Union and Eastern Europe
The Ford Foundation’s Office of European and
International Affairs is pleased to announce an
international competition designed to encourage and
support focused, problem-oriented, scholarly research
projects in the Soviet and East European field. The
competition is open to scholars at colleges,
universities, and research institutions in the United
States and other countries. Scope and duration: only
problem-oriented, focused research projects will be
considered. Disciplines in which projects might be
presented include: economics, history, political science,
sociology, literature, linguistics, law, art, and
anthropology. Projects may be interdisciplinary or may
concern several countries or a region. Research should
be completed within three years at most. Evaluation
of proposals: between 10 and 15 research projects will
* be funded at levels ranging from $30,000 to $90,000.
An international board will evaluate proposals
according to (1) scholarly merit; (2) relevance of the
proposed research to important questions or issues
concerning the Soviet Union and the countries of
Eastern Europe; (3) potential contribution to the
further development of Soviet and East European
studies. Eligibility; while proposals involving only one
researcher will not be precluded, the program is
designed primarily to encourage small groups of
scholars to undertake co-ordinated research. Proposals
will be considered from scholars at a single institution
or from a group of scholars at several! institutions.
Budgetary limitations: funds will not be provided for
institutional overhead or for the general support of a
research centre or institute. Funds may be requested
for such items as salaries of the principal researchers,
or equivalent released-time students who either
participate in the primary research or provide research
assistance, travel, and support services. Institutional
involvement: awards will only be made to institutions
eligible for Foundation grants with which the
applicants are themselves associated. If the project
involves researchers at several institutions, appropriate
arrangements should be made for one of them to
administer the grant funds. Application procedures:
Applicants should submit prior to January 1, 1975
three copies of a brief outline, in English, of the
proposal they are considering. These should be less
than five typewritten, double-spaced pages and should
contain the names and affiliations of the principal
researchers and an estimated budget. They should be
addressed to: The Soviet and East European Research
Competition, European and International Affairs, The
Ford Foundation, 320 East 43 Street, New York,
New York USA 10017. If the response to the
preliminary proposal is positive, a full-length proposal
will be invited to be submitted by March 15, 1975.
